About the design: Just experimentation; a spider web seemed like a good candidate for this first design.

The yarns: Although glass manufacturing was an important industry in Romania, coloured glass was not available for retail sale. The bird’s eye was cut from a small piece of red glass filter used for optical railway signals. Being the very first true stained glass window I made, everything was a challenge. At the time, there were no courses, books, or other artists to learn from in the region.
